William Regal and Daniel Bryan faced off in a mentor vs student match

Daniel Bryan and William Regal have a long history together. While it's been mentioned multiple times before that Bryan trained during his early days in Shawn Michaels' wrestling school, Bryan has given far more credit to William Regal for mentoring him through the years.

The two did meet in a match on Main Event in 2011 (surprising that they'd have such a small stage for such a match) in Liverpool, and William Regal received a great ovation from his home country crowd. However, during his entrance, someone backstage decided to play an absolutely hilarious prank on him.

While he was entering to his regular theme song, it was switched over to his old Steven Regal theme song. As the speaker was blasting "He's a maaaan, such a maaaan", you can see William Regal unable to control it and bursting out into laughter.
